More quotes by Ralph Waldo Emerson
The music that can deepest reach and cure all ill is cordial speech.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Had I but written as many odes in praise of Muhammad and Ali as I have composed for King Mahmud, they would have showered a hundred blessings on me.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Honor and fortune exist for him who always recognizes the neighborhood of the great, always feels himself in the presence of high causes.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Yet some natures are too good to be spoiled by praise, and wherever the vein of thought reaches down into the profound, there is no danger from vanity. Solemn friends will warn them of the danger of the head's being turned by the flourish of trumpets, but they can afford to smile.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Do that which you fear to do, and the fear will die.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Ralph Waldo Emerson
It is very unhappy, but too late to be helped, the discovery we have made, that we exist
Ralph Waldo Emerson
One lesson we learn early, that in spite of seeming difference, men are all of one pattern. We readily assume this with our mates, and are disappointed and angry if we find that we are premature, and that their watches are slower than ours. In fact, the only sin which we never forgive in each other is difference of opinion.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
I DO not count the hours I spend In wandering by the sea The forest is my loyal friend, Like God it useth me.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Life has a way of demanding that you live it.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
He who is in love is wise and is becoming wiser, sees newly every time he looks at the object beloved, drawing from it with his eyes and his mind those virtues which it possesses.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Every man is grave alone.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
I will not hide my tastes or aversions. If you are true, but not in the same truth with me, cleave to your companions I will seek my own.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
What is life but the angle of vision? A man is measured by the angle at which he looks at objects.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
The universe is the externalization of the soul.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
